This is why a safe space matters.

When someone feels held enough to unpack the hard things - the trauma, the family dynamics, the self doubt, something powerful happens. They stop bracing for impact and start backing themselves. They see their life through a clearer lens and finally breathe.

Witnessing that kind of shift is a privilege. It’s the heart of coaching and it’s why I show up for this work every day.

Is this you?

You're still showing up to work, still getting things done, still managing the kids, the house, the relationships but you're exhausted in a way that sleep doesn't fix. You've forgotten what it feels like to not feel behind and you can't quite remember the last time you felt like yourself.

That's burnout and in 2026, it's at record levels in New Zealand. According to Massey University research, 1 in 2 NZ workers are now at high burnout risk. High achievers and capable people are running themselves into the ground because they don't know how to stop without everything falling apart.

So I've created something practical and affordable to help.

Burnt Out but Still Showing Up — a 4-week group coaching programme

✅ Week 1: Are You Actually Burnt Out? (honest assessment)

✅ Week 2: What's Really Driving It

✅ Week 3: Reclaiming Energy Without Blowing Up Your Life

✅ Week 4: Your New Baseline

📅 Tuesdays (28th July –> 18th August) - 6:30 – 7:30pm

💻 Small group via Zoom | Max 10 people

💲 $297

This programme is grounded in real psychology with science-backed tools that actually work in real life. I'm a Co-Active trained coach with a BSc in Psychology and 16 years international experience.

Here's what a past client had to say:
"Jemma's guidance was invaluable in helping me navigate my recovery from burnout after a busy career. Her kind, non-judgemental approach made it feel more like a conversation with a wise friend than a formal coaching session."

Spots are limited to 10 to keep this genuinely intimate and supportive. Register your interest here 👇

I've recently joined the committee of the Ōmokoroa Business Network — a group dedicated to connecting and supporting the business community on the Peninsula and surrounds.

Last night we hosted Business After 5 at the stunning GJ Gardner showhome in Omokoroa, and what a night it was. Great turnout, beautiful venue and most importantly genuine conversations between local business owners and professionals.

Omokoroa is growing fast, it's great to see the business community keeping pace with that and looking out for each other along the way.

Check out https://omokoroa.net/omokoroa-business-network/ for upcoming events, the opportunity to hear from inspiring speakers and grow your network.

You can be productive, capable, and successful… and still be burnt out.

Recent NZ wellbeing data from the 2025 New Zealand Workplace Wellbeing Report shows that burnout, stress, and anxiety are affecting a significant portion of our workforce.

And in my coaching sessions, I’m seeing the same pattern:

People are still performing.
Still delivering.
Still appearing “fine”.
But internally, many are running on empty.

I’ve written a new article on my Insights page about the quiet burnout many professionals experience — why it often goes unnoticed, and how to recognise the early signs before it begins affecting your wellbeing, confidence, and work.

You can read the article here: https://www.headwaycoaching.co.nz/blog

If you’re navigating burnout yourself or supporting a team that is, feel free to reach out.

Some feedback hits differently.

This review from Tristan is a reminder of what a privilege it is to sit with people in their most honest moments — the messy ones, the brave ones, the breakthrough ones.

Coaching is human work. It’s deep work. And when someone says it’s been transformative, that’s the highest compliment there is.

Contrast therapy has become a non-negotiable for my mental health and nervous system, giving my body space to reset and come back feeling stronger. Private sessions -Studio-The-Mount have become my favourite way to recalibrate.

If you're around the mount and needing a reset, I highly recommend this gorgeous space to recharge.

You may not be jumping into ice baths but every day brings it's own pressures. Through mindset coaching I help clients build the resilience, clarity and discipline to reset when things start to feel overwhelming.

If you're ready to feel more grounded and in control, I'm here to help. Message me if you're ready to start your reset.

I've spent 16 years coaching people through career change.

But the conversations I'm having right now? They feel different.

People aren't in crisis, they're just quietly unsettled. Watching AI reshape their workplace and wondering what it means for THEM.

So I built something for that.

✨ How to Pivot Your Career with Confidence in the Age of AI
📅 Tuesday 31st March | The Kollective - TK | 6pm-8pm

In just 2 hours you'll walk away with:

✅ A real picture of how AI is reshaping NZ jobs and where humans still win
✅ Your values, strengths & transferable skills mapped to future-proof roles
✅ Tools to bust the limiting beliefs holding you back from making the leap
✅ A CV & interview strategy built for 2026 including how to tell 'value stories' AI can't replicate

This is a small group — real conversation, not a lecture.

I'm Jemma McLoughlin — Co-Active trained coach, BSc Psychology, 16+ years experience coaching professionals across NZ and internationally 🇳🇿

One of the most rewarding parts of the work I do is watching individuals step into careers that feel purposeful and aligned.

A wonderful client I’ve supported for nearly two years recently made an exciting and significant career move, one that required courage, clarity, and a willingness to challenge long‑held beliefs about what was possible.

If you’re contemplating a career change for 2026, you don’t have to do it in isolation. Get in touch - [email protected] and let’s explore your next step together.

As I look back on 2025, I’m feeling incredibly lucky.

To my clients: Thank you for being so open, so brave and so willing to do the internal work that leads to long term change. Watching your "aha" moments has been the absolute highlight of my year.

To the businesses and partners I’ve worked alongside this year: Thank you for the collaboration, the trust and the fantastic outcomes we've achieved.

I’ll be taking some time off from the 24th December and back in the swing of things on the 12th January. I am planning to run a number of workshops next year so watch this space for more details.

My calendar for 2026 is already starting to fill up. If you’re ready to make some serious headway in the New Year, feel free to drop me a message or head to www.headwaycoaching.co.nz and book in for an initial consultation. I’d love to help you hit the ground running!
Wishing you a peaceful break filled with everything that makes you happy. Happy Holidays! 🎄
